Naga Chaitanya speaks on negativity around Laal Singh Chaddha
Earlier, speaking about the entire negativity around Laal Singh Chaddha and people criticising Aamir Khan for his Punjabi accent in the film, actor Naga Chaitanya said in an interview with india.com: “I am not the best judge of that. To be honest, I am not too familiar with the language. But, all the doubts that have been thrown at the film on the basis of the content that they have read so far will be erased once they watch the film, once you get immersed in the film and get immersed with Laal.”
The popular Telugu star, who’s making his Bollywood debut with the Advait Chandan directorial added, “You are going to go through a lovely film and all these comparisons are going to go away. Also, it’s the same for every film. Before you see the final product, there are a number of opinions, doubts and questions which are fine and it only creates a certain interest in that film. So, it’s all a part of the film. Once you watch the film, all this will go. You will come out smiling and with tears.”
